Last November 4, I celebrated my 49th birthday together with my family and my future son-in-law. There is no big celebration during that day. We just share a simple dinner and had few laughs. Despite that I am still happy I have reached 49.

At the end of the day, before going to bed, I thought about the next days to come. I am thankful of the many blessings I received and the strength God had given me to surpass all the hardships that come my way for the past years. Next year, I will turn to 50. Hopefully on that day I’ll be wearing diamonds like Pacquiao’s mother. Hehehe! Just joking! But, if destiny permits me, then there’s no doubt I’ll do it.
